Description
In vi-mode, readline and some implementations seem to
ring the bell with unassigned commands.
(readline can change the setting with bell-style of .inputrc)
I think Reline should follow them, so how about?
| unassigned command | ESC in command mode | |
|---|---|---|
| readline | 🔔 | - |
| editline | 🔔 | 🔔 (once every 2 times?) |
| vim | 🔔 | 🔔 |
| nvi | warning message | 🔔 |
| Zsh | 🔔 | 🔔 |
(I think it is useful for debug of Reline itself...)

Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by locating Reline's vi-mode command handling and the path for unassigned commands, then compare its behavior with the readline, editline, vim, nvi, and Zsh table. Done means unassigned commands ring the bell consistently with the intended vi-mode behavior, including ESC in command mode.
